Indeed stupid. And so is the pompous table-side plating to try to make it seem fancy.
I also bet the dishies fucking hate this

I dont hate this, you get pie crust and lobster filling, looks not bad too. It’s not a pie in the traditional sense, rather performative but hey, doesn’t look bad.

I instinctively down-voted this on accident when they opened up the crust to reveal shiny metal inside.

I get it.
You’re basically steaming seafood in pastry. That means you’re serving freshly steamed seafood in its broth on top of a freshly baked pastry, to get that good broth.
It’s inherently a good idea, but given the pastry there’s no way to serve this without making it an “event” table-side, and releasing the heat not until the table-side moment is important here.
it’s a full meal based on flavored broth; can’t do that in anything but a pot. And then it’s large, not personal size because it’s a pot. And then it’s big enough that you can’t just plop it on the table.

Not knowing much what I was doing I made a shitty pot pie using Pillsbury rolls in a can and a bunch of other stuff and it still turned out way better than whatever the fuck this is

That’s gotta be on Cape Cod, probably on one of the islands.

This is basically inspired by Paul Bocuse’s « soupe aux truffes VGE », which is considered one of the finest dish to ever exist in French gastronomy. This is far from stupid.
